Well all I can say is I am so very lucky...we have just returned today (Monday) from our annual retreat at Cottage On The Hill - Nundle, where we have been totally spoilt by Kerry....14 of us rocked up to Nundle on Friday.....8 from Narromine (Dale, Kerry, Gaizie, June, Fiona, Cath and Karri and of course me.) friends from Sydney (Norm and Deb) and 4 beautiful ladies from Gunnedah (Cath, Belinda, Nicole and Leanne)...We all met for Dinner on Friday night at the local pub and it all started from there so much fun, laughter, great food, sewing for two days....Kerry was so organised in the sewing department, last night at dinner quite a few of the girls said they did not hold a cutter in their hand all weekend, Kerry did everything....Kerry also does all the catering.... morning/afternoon tea and lunch...she is amazing.....there was also a little bit of snow for us in the hills .........Kerry, thank you so very much for such a fantastic weekend and the 13 ladies that I have had the pleasure of spending the weekend with....hugs to you all......
